Service Works approach:

  • Learning together: Reflecting and learning from what works and what doesn’t. Discovering and sharing together, working iteratively and in the open. 
  • Leaving and Lasting impact: Adopting a design thinking approach, finding exciting possibilities to tackle problems in the organisation’s services and context.

Service Works offers a unique range of courses – from the fundamentals of service design to customized training for organisations. Have an overview to the established courses:

  • Introduction to user-centred design and public services training course.
  • Leading Public Services in the Digital Age
  • Service Design in Practice

 

 

“ This style of developmental programme was a first for us. Jo and the team combined learning with application to a real-world problem and produced some really valuable recommendations. This approach had a really notable impact on engagement, and it’s been really powerful to see and hear the change among the cohort – in particular the mindset change. The programme added much more value than I’d hoped for both, for the cohort and for the organisation with great results” - Senior Learning Account Manager, Welsh Government

We recognise Service Works as a high-quality learning institution and consultancy. Through our Organisational Accreditation initiative, Service Works is also recognised as a high-quality partner of the SDN Academy, an international educational provider of high-quality service design content.
